Hi I have a wireless router which i have connected to a dsl connection and to my computer and my roomate has a pcmia card in her laptop to connect to the router so she has the internet. It worked for the last few months but now suddenly it stopped working properly. It connects to the network but as soon as you try to do anything internet related it says that the network is unavailable. About the only website you can go to is google and do a search but as soon as you click on a site it disconnects again. Does anyone know of a solution to this?? Thanks

Griff

Sounds like your lmshosts file is corrupt

Do a search for files
find the file named lmshost
rename it to lmhosts.old or delete it so that it creates a new one on reboot
see if that corrects the problem
